This is a “cultural feast” to experience the true essence of Hanoi. If you’re a food enthusiast, the Tet atmosphere in the old quarter offers an unforgettable journey with special dishes like bun thang, pho,….
Hang Ma Street – A festival of colors for Tet
Hang Ma Street is not just a bustling trading area but also a festival “paradise” rich in Hanoi’s characteristics. At the end of the year, the entire street is draped in the red hue of lucky money envelopes, lanterns, and traditional Tet decorations. Wandering in Hang Ma during this period, you not only see but also fully feel the festive atmosphere.
Decorative products like peach blossoms, couplets, and special gifts are perfect choices to bring home for family or friends as symbols of good fortune for the new year. The large number of tourists creates a cultural exchange zone, where you can admire colors, take souvenir photos, and enjoy the distinct early spring atmosphere.
St. Joseph’s Cathedral – A destination for the New Year
St. Joseph’s Cathedral is one of the familiar symbols of the capital, especially drawing attention during the festive season. The cathedral is often magnificently decorated with lights, Christmas trees, and unique religious symbols, attracting locals and tourists alike. In the ancient yet festive atmosphere, the cathedral is a popular check-in spot for young people visiting Hanoi at the end of the year. Musical programs and performances on New Year’s Eve will bring you excitement and hope to welcome the new year.
